Jewish Rifle & Pistol Club

I know some of our one hundred and thirteen members in the Jewish Rifle & Pistol Club of Central Texas already are carrying concealed and more may join them after the Beth Israel arson. Anti-Semites who want to live would do well not to believe that Jews are defenseless.

Our membership cards have the engraved reminder from Leviticus: “Don’t stand by while your neighbor’s blood is shed.”

Indeed, nothing says Never Again like an armed Jew. We don’t dial 911, until it’s over.

Synagogue arson

Congregation Beth Israel, on Shoal Creek Boulevard above 35th Street, had its beautiful wooden doors damaged by an intentionally-set fire on Halloween night. Smoke penetrated the sanctuary such that ceiling tiles will have to be replaced. Damage is estimated at $25,000. Austin fire department released fuzzy surveillance photos of a white male suspect, who also could be Hispanic.

Beth Israel was where I studied Talmud a few years ago and I also participated in a Passover meal with the other Talmud scholars. It’s one of the few, and the most prominent, synagogues outside the confines of the fenced Jewish community center on Hart Lane in northwest Austin. Beth Israel (House of Israel) was built in the 1870s and expanded in the 1950s.

“The fire…comes just a week after an anti-Semitic banner [with swastikas] was displayed over TX-Loop 1 [near the JCC]. City leaders since then condemned the incident, saying the message has no place in Austin. Shalom Austin [which manages the JCC] called the incident ‘extremely upsetting and unsettling.'” 

And Beth Israel’s arson followed. Hardly a coincidence.

Lyin’ Biden

That’s the title of a new category hereabouts. Let’s start with the Tree of Life Synagogue which Biden claims to have visited after the 2018 massacre that killed 11. Not so, says the synagogue’s rabbi. Biden never did.

Creepy Joe’s tricks

Creepy Joe’s snub of Israel is just his latest slick trick. His “Buy America” policy is only for companies with unions. And the obligatory “diversity.” Seems his former boss is wagging his puppet arms and pulling his strings too.

This is one of the best interviews on this topic that I’ve heard. Believe or don’t believe. Know or don’t know. Terri Daniel is amazing.

BLM mob attacks Jews

Rabbi Yaacov Behrman of Chabad Lubavitch tweeted that he spoke with several of the men who were attacked, and one of them told him that the verbal abuse started before the scene shown in the video when one BLM supporter shouted ,“This isn’t your holocaust. You don’t belong here.”
